What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Virgo, the Fixer

    Sharp-eyed and quietly kind. Sees how a thing could work better and rolls up his sleeves to fix it.

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Gemini, the Talker

    Light on his feet emotionally. Feels at home in a good conversation and gets restless in silence. His head and his feelings argue: he knows what he thinks before he knows what he feels, or the other way round.

    The Moon square Mercury (almost exact at 0.6°)

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Virgo, the Quiet Romantic

    Modest in love and devoted to the bone. Proves feelings through actions rather than speeches. His taste and his appetite for more need adjusting: he keeps learning what is enough.

    Venus quincunx Jupiter (close at 2.0°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Virgo, the Analyst

    Clever, methodical and useful. Turns a muddle into a list and the list into results. A quick, original mind: ideas arrive in flashes, and he sees answers others miss.

    Mercury sextile Uranus (almost exact at 0.4°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Leo, the Leader

    Confident, dramatic and courageous. Puts heart into every effort and likes to lead from the front. His drive and his discipline work together easily: he can push hard and keep going.

    Mars sextile Saturn (wide at 3.2°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his mind and his heart (the Sun, Mercury and Venus) gather in Virgo, and that part of life draws his attention first.
